Nearing 30!

I'm nearing 30..
half my life i've seen, heard, experienced..
but dont know whether i've lived!

I've seen the earth taking 30 full revolutions around the sun..
I've smelt my memories growing to a maturity from a dot
I've felt my legs getting stronger to a pair of tombs from a tiny knot..
but dont know whether i've stood tall and got them done..

half the road to walk more..
keeping a pace and staying in a race..
but dont know whether i need a face..

I'll have seen the earth taking so many revolutions around the sun..
I'll have smelt my memories grow and die like a wave..
I'll have felt my legs getting weaker to a pair of bones..
but dont know whether i'll have died!

Standing tall on the peak of the age..may be..
only will I start climbing down to reach 60..
as age never grows; it only goes up & down reaching a top.
but dont know whether climbing down has started long back!!
